Not only has Almighty God called us to be brave and courageous, but He has also commissioned us for these important days. We need to be prepared for conquest that brings about a swift and sure change. Preparation includes asking, seeking, and knocking (Matthew 7:7) until we come to understand and carry out God’s purpose for our life.
God's plan for His people is the plan of victory, not defeat (see Jeremiah 29:11). We are called and commissioned to be overcomers (see Romans 8:37). Though this may seem intimidating to some, the reality is that deep within the soul of every true Christian beats the heart of an overcomer. The word overcomer suggests a victory after a hard struggle. We are to be strong and willing warriors as do battle with the kingdom of darkness, advancing God’s Kingdom in the earth.
By praying the scriptures in the epistles of Paul that pertain to our inheritance in Christ we come to know who we are in Christ; the power that is flowing through us and our authority over sickness, the kingdom of darkness, distractions, or other issues of life. Our body is the temple of God and we have the right to take authority over every area of it – spirit, soul, and body.
Romans 4:17 -- ....."God who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did."
When Jesus saw the man with a withered hand, He didn't say, "My goodness! It is so withered!" He said, "Stretch out your hand!" (Matthew 12:13). He CALLED FORTH what he wanted.
He looked at the paralytic and said, "Rise, take up your bed and go home!" (Matthew 9:6). He didn't see it the way it was in the natural. He saw the way God meant it to be and He CALLED IT FORTH.
God's way is to call those things that are not as though they are. And because we are made in God's image, we can also call those things that are not as though they are!
The great Charles Finney, considered one of the greatest soul winners of his time, once walked into a factory in upstate New York. Some workers mocked him for being a preacher. He never preached a message. His life was the message. His consecration was the sermon.
Suddenly, conviction fell. Workers began trembling and shaking. It spread like wildfire throughout the factory. People wept and cried out in repentance. Finney left after a long day. When he returned hours later, they were still under conviction, crying out to God.
The best sermon never preached is a life of holiness consecrated to Jesus. Some things people call "the supernatural" (not referring to the nine gifts of the Spirit) are simply Jesus being manifested through those who have chosen the path of holiness.
Let your life preach Jesus more than your words.
